Fantastic, powerful initiatives that empower young people with type 1 diabetes and can be a source of inspiration for others around the world. Another milestone contribution in diabetes care in the UK. AMD Associazione Medici Diabetologi SID Italia Stefano Del Prato Amy Jolley

Frailty is no longer just a condition of old age. Our recent article discusses how early onset type 2 diabetes might drive premature frailty with major implications for clinical care and public health.

Significant data⚡️ My take: 1. The quality of care(SoC) at each facility influences DFU outcome 2. Maj Amputations are a clinical decision rather than an inexorable outcome - modifiable (not always avoidable) Giuseppe Maltese Fran Game Joseph L. Mills MD José Luis Lázaro Martínez Marco Meloni

1/ 🧵The Life of Insulin: Insulin is made n the β-cells of the pancreas, where it is folded, processed, and stored in secretory granules. Upon glucose stimulation, insulin is secreted into the portal circulation, giving it direct access to the liver.

Results from an indirect analysis: Tirzepatide (10/15mg) vs semaglutide (2.4mg) in T2D with obesity: 📍4.4–5.3% greater weight loss 📍Up to 2.2× more likely to lose ≥5% weight 📍0.35–0.67% greater HbA1c reductionHead-to-head data still needed. …ubs.pericles-prod.literatumonline.com/doi/10.1111/do…

Many older patients are not screened for frailty before surgery. UK study found that 71% of hospitals skip routine frailty checks in over60s. Screening is simple, improves outcomes, and should be standard practice. Via The Standard British Geriatrics Society NHS England Adam Gordon MBE

CGM use is rising, though still slowly, in older adults with T2D. Stark disparities by race, age, and socio-economic status persist. Equitable access to diabetes technology should be a priority, in any country. Diabetes Care, a research journal of the ADA 🌟 #Diabetes #Olderpeople #Technology
